butterfly88: ![]() Every parent surely knows that their ward can either be a very good person or a very bad person. They try their best, however, to make their wards toe the right part. |
butterfly88:The people that turn out to be criminals and rapists and murderers and armed robbers are people's children. People even give birth to children that eventually kill them. The people that gave birth to them never planned for them to become criminals. Therefore there is the risk in giving birth to a child: you might actually give birth to someone who would kill you. Should people consider the risk and stop giving birth to children? |
butterfly88:The computer logic is mine, remember? ![]() Now, a scientist gave birth to a son. This son became rebellious and disdained his father. Now this scientist invented a beautiful technology for spreading information about his scientific work but his rebellious son turned it into a device for spreading libellous messages and intensifying his rebellion against his father. Who is to blame in this case? |
raphieMontella:No. Humans die today because sin entered our world. Both righteous and sinful people die the natural death. Death came with sin. Death, however, is not the end There is hope beyond the grave for the righteous. GOD does not kill righteous and innocent people. Satan does. Remember Job? Satan destroyed all his children. Remember the babies in bethlehem? Satan destroyed all of them in a bid to derail GOD's plan for man's redemption. Satan then killed Jesus. Every human being is GOD's creature: blind, halt, deaf, disfigured, mad, black, white, hemaphrodite- all are His creation. |
butterfly88: ![]() GOD created Lucifer to glorify Himself. However, GOD didn't create him a robot. If He did, there wouldn't have been any possibility for Lucifer to disobey GOD. And so GOD creating Lucifer with freewill to choose either obedience or rebellion was a risk. Satan choosing to disobey would endanger creation. And he did. GOD however showed that He is wise by providing for the redemption of creation. Yes. A careful study of the Bible reveals that Satan is much more powerful than man can conceive. Very powerful. |
dorox:The perfect definition of risk-taking is creating something that has a possibility to turn against you. |
butterfly88:GOD created Lucifer before He created man. I only know as much as the Scriptures reveal, but Satan was cast out from Heaven even before man was created. He then proceeded to deceive man. Now, the computer can be used to send an appointment letter over the internet. The computer can also be used to send a letter of threat over the internet. Is this the fault of the computer or the fault of the people created technology? |
raphieMontella:LOL. I exist today because GOD ordained it to be. It is of His mercies that I'm not consumed. Babies die in the womb, and so we see that mating doesn't guarantee existence. |
butterfly88:He was aware of it. You see, GOD actually took a very big risk in creating Lucifer- a very beautiful, mighty and powerful angel next in rank in all ramifications only to Himself. On top of it all, this being was not created a robot but was created with freewill: he could actually choose to serve and remain loyal to His Creator. He could also choose to rebel. GOD knew that Satan choosing to rebel and deceiving the rest of creation into rebellion would cost Him a lot--even His own life. When the first seeds of pride began germinating in Lucifer's heart, GOD knew a very big problem was imminent. GOD created Satan with freewill. He chose to rebel. |
butterfly88:LOL. There is no mistake in the computer. The computer is a beautiful device which excellently eases the stress of work. And even if such a mistake exists in the computer, that is not the reason why the computer has been turned into a tool for committing crime. There is no inherent "mistake" in the computer. It was suited perfectly for office work. However, enemies of progress have found another use for it. GOD made creation and declared it perfect. Man's state of perfection depended, however, on his obedience to GOD. The enemy, through the means of guile and subtlety, found a way to lead man into rebellion against GOD. Good news, however, is that GOD is actively working to restore man to perfection--this time without any chance of sinning again. |
butterfly88:The people that created phones and computers never planned for them to be used in scamming people and duping people online, did they? However, should they not have created phones and laptops? The beautiful technology they invented has been employed in committing crime. GOD made all things perfect to give glory to Himself. But an Enemy brought in rebellion and defaced creation. What GOD created to give glory to Himself as the Creator was now an agent of rebellion against the Creator, contrary to His plan. GOD created us to be in a loving and happy relationship with himself. And that is how all things will be when GOD finally ends this Great Controversy. |
butterfly88:It should be noted that Satan once stood in GOD's presence, next in rank only to Jesus Christ. He was created a covering cherub and not "Satan". And when Satan is finally destroyed, GOD will shed tears for that beautiful creature. GOD is not the origin of pride. GOD is not proud. Satan allowed his beauty and excellence to deceive him into thinking he could usurp GOD's throne and receive worship just like GOD. Sin is disobedience to GOD and so you cannot say GOD created disobedience to himself. Satan is to blame. He thought that by the virtue of his exalted position, He could exercise the prerogatives of GOD. |
ValentineMary:You may call me whatever you want. However, that does not change the Word of GOD, neither does it change the fate of sinners. |
butterfly88:Satan rebelled against GOD in Heaven. He is the origin of sin. I never said GOD made provision for us to sin. GOD made a provision to save us from sin. GOD never created sin. Pride in the heart of Satan led him to rebel against GOD. When GOD saw He was unrepentant, He was cast out from Heaven, and his doom was sealed. Evil and sorrow and disease and death are part of our world today because sin exists. When GOD makes all things new, all these things won't be there. |
ValentineMary:How are they contradictory? GOD could have done it the forceful way by stamping out sin when it reared up its ugly head. However, GOD's righteous and self-sacrificing character would have been in question. It could have been argued that He demanded obedience by force. GOD wants us to obey Him because we've found out that obedience to Him is the best option. Surely, sin is destined for destruction. However, GOD wanted everybody to see that their safety is guaranteed only by their willful obedience to Him. The terrible things we see in the world today are effects of disobedience to GOD. To save man from sin and the destruction waiting for it, He gave His only begotten Son. That is love. |
ValentineMary:Bro, I said whether you like it or not, GOD created you. It's just like asking your mother for an evidence that she gave birth to you. How am I inconsiderate and selfish? What about me is inconsiderate or selfish? |
butterfly88:GOD is perfect and all-knowing. Even before He created the world, He made a provision should sin enter it. That provision is Jesus Christ. The Bible calls Him the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. Rev. 13:8. GOD made a provision for man should he sin. That is how much He loves man. GOD could have stamped out sin when it came up but the only reason why GOD allowed sin to play out its effects fully is to vindicate His righteous character. By the time it would be all over, it would have been clear to the whole universe that rebellion against GOD=disaster and disease and death. |
ValentineMary:Bro, whether you believe it or not, you were created by GOD. You will still give account of how you lived your life here on earth to Him. You neither know who GOD is nor do you know what He had in mind for man. Disasters and diseases were never part of His creation. Sin entered and brought with it disease and disaster and death. GOD's perfect creation was marred. Good news, however, is that things will not always be this way. GOD will destroy evil and evildoers, and then restore creation to its original state. |
LOL

johnydon22:Most faulty logic. Because Quantum theory is established just like double circulation in humans, does it mean Quantum theory = double circulation? Your syllogism is not only faulty, but also laughable. |
Weah96:If I'm jealous of my friends academic success, my heart does not beat faster. And when I say heart, I don't mean the organ beating in my chest. Moreover, you cannot find jealousy in my brain. |
johnydon22:I'm happy you accepted that GOD exists. Now I tell you that GOD lives in my heart. He is an entity. He talks to me and He directs me. I hear Him speak. Can an emotion speak? Can an emotion direct? Can an emotion caution? |
ValentineMary:Bro look at it this way: I tell you I have jealousy in my heart. Can you disprove it? Or can you ask me for a proof that I have jealousy in my heart? Yet, look sincerely all around you: everything testifies to the existence and benevolence of GOD. |
johnydon22:Wrong premise. Who now checks his write-ups before posting? |
johnydon22:Bro, it's been established that GOD exists. How? The same way it's been established that "jealousy" exists. LOL. GOD loves me so much He gave His only begotten Son to redeem me. What can separate me from His love? NOTHING! |
raphieMontella: This question exposes your poor knowledge of the Bible and of GOD.Read Psa. 139:1-12. GOD is not a man, okay? For us men, it's impossible to see even through a brick wall, but not so with GOD. ![]() |
wolesmile:What issues are on ground? ![]() |
wolesmile:Bro, do you have any more questions about the Bible?
|
felixomor:
|
GOD created the earth. He knows the shape of the earth. |
The Bible knows fully well that the earth is a sphere. The Bible says GOD sits on the circle of the earth. If you observe a sphere from its top, the shape you see is a circle. Now check out the view of the earth from the North pole below. What shape do you see?

wolesmile:So...? |
